Layered Process Audit Guideline

The latest CQI-8 manual takes from the experience of OEMs and Tier One suppliers to deliver a roadmap for effective Layered Process Audit implementation, to provide a reduction in variation along the manufacturing line all the way up through the ranks of plant management. For organizations who feel they are not benefiting from Layered Process Audit it provides suggestions to improve their checksheets and other key aspects of their Layered Process Audit system.

The updated guideline explains how Layered Process Audits can be used as management tools to verify that work is done according to established standards, emphasize the importance of those standards, and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.
